How much weight will a modified grizzly loose
« on: February 27, 2009, 09:06:00 PM »
This is probably getting to nitpicky but this is the first time that I have messed with the EFOC thing.  I've got my arrow and bow tuned perfectly with 250 grn Field points.  My qestion is after modifying the grizzly el grande 150+100 grain insert to the sharper bevel angle will I lose enough weight to affect flight?

I found that the metal lost by sharpening is 10-15 gns as stated above; you won't notice any difference using a fletched arrow.

I would say 5-10 grains unless you get real wild with the file.
